Who it’s for: Anyone who wants a short, hard full-body session at home or in the gym, with no equipment.
An AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) is the simplest functional fitness format: one short circuit, repeated for a fixed time, at a pace you can keep. This one needs no equipment at all: squats, push-ups and burpees, round after round for 16 minutes.
Pace it so you are still moving in the last minute; a steady 7 rounds beats 4 fast ones and a long rest. Count your rounds and write them down: next time, aim to beat the number. If push-ups slow you to a stop, do them on your knees or with your hands on a bench, and keep the burpees step-back if jumping is too much.
